INTERCLUB MATCHES
Our Minor Cup Team will play Newcastlewest in Newcastlewest
on Saturday next, May 27th at 12pm. We wish the team and manager Tina Moriarty the best of luck.
Well done to our Challenge Cup Team managed by Marie McCarthy who had a great victory against Doneraile in Castle last Tuesday, our ladies had an emphatic win and we await their opponents in the next round.
CARE ON THE COURSE
It is very noticeable on the course after the weekend that we have a large amount of divots not replaced, pitch marks on greens and bunkers not raked.
It is the responsibility of each member to replace their divots, fix their pitch marks and rake the bunkers properly after use. Can we all ensure we carry out these tasks each time we go out to play, be it in competition or social golf.
PRIZEGIVING
All outstanding prizes up to this weekend will be presented on Friday, June 2nd in the clubhouse at approx 2pm. For those of you unable to attend, your prizes will be left in the clubhouse for collection, just ask Fiona or Celine.
Prizewinners to date are Edel Randles, Fiona O'Toole, Kathleen Hennessy, Marie McCarthy, Alana Rowan, Anita O'Sullivan, Patricia Goodwin, Marion Bourke, Heather Stevenson, Mary Sills, Carmel Kearney, Merlyn O'Connor, Anna Shannon, Miriam Mulhall-Nolan, Mary Moriarty, Mary T. Real and Theresa Nolan.
